                if thing.itemid > 0 then
                    if isMonster(thing.uid) then

huahushash maybe too much area but idk
but do you really need that for all monsters??
if it were just for some monsters, you can use an onThink creaturescript just for them

well for all monsters..unless there is a shorter way at lua..it's easier a c double p, at the part when the monsters say their "voices", the ones that are at their .xml files..that's all can i say..in that case you should request that at c++ requests and support section

You can either write a small programm or a lua code or do it manually and add this to every monster you want:
Code: 
<script> 
<event name="CREATURESCRIPT_NAME"/> 
</script>
or you need to do a source edit so that certain creatureevent is auto registered to all monsters..

I found this in sorce monsters.cpp:
PHP: 
		else if(!xmlStrcmp(p->name, (const xmlChar*)"script"))
		{
			xmlNodePtr tmpNode = p->children;
			while(tmpNode)
			{
				if(!xmlStrcmp(tmpNode->name, (const xmlChar*)"event"))
				{
					if(readXMLString(tmpNode, "name", strValue))
						mType->scriptList.push_back(strValue);
					else
						SHOW_XML_WARNING("Missing name for script event");
				}

				tmpNode = tmpNode->next;
			}
		}
		else
			SHOW_XML_WARNING("Unknown attribute type - " << p->name);

		p = p->next;
	}

i mind this is for register events, but i dont know how to use, so who can help me??

LUA: 
function getMonstersInRange(fromPos, toPos)

local tmp = {}
 
	if not type(fromPos) == "table" or not type(toPos) == "table" then return error("[Warning - Function::getMonstersInRange] Invalid position.") end
 
	local thing = nil
	for x = fromPos.x, toPos.x do
		for y = fromPos.y, toPos.y do
			for z = fromPos.z, toPos.z do
				for s = 1, 253 do
					local position = {x = x, y = y, z = z, stackpos = s}
					thing = getTileThingByPos(position)
					if isMonster(thing.uid) then
						table.insert(tmp, thing.uid)
					end
				end
			end
		end
	end
	return tmp
end

use it like
LUA: 
doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 2, "There are " .. table.maxn(getMonstersInRange(fromPos, toPos)) .. " monsters.")

Thx, but if i use this script from pos 0 To 999 (all pos in map) then crushing server.
So i need To use this script for all monster on screen (Creaturescript, onThing), but if i have 300 players online then may crush server, so this is stupid code.

use it like

doPlayerSendTextMessage(cid, 2, "There are " .. table.maxn(getMonstersInRange(fromPos, toPos)) .. " monsters.")
Click to expand...

it's not smart to loop every tile 253 times
